I would classify Chinese peasants into 3 categories:
1. Peasants in southeast China
This region boasts the best economic conditions, and factories are seen in many a village or town, so peasants could find employment near their home. Salaries plus farmland yields, this group enjoy the most material comfort.
2. Peasants in mid-China
Men leave home for employment opportunities as construction workers, factory workers, etc., in urban areas, while women remain at home working the soil; in some cases both man and wife abandon their land to make a bare living in cities in the hope of saving enough money to return home building a new house and modernizing their furnitures.
3. Peasants in remote mountainous areas in southwest China
The farmland is scarce, so two choices left: farm your pitiable piece of land to scrape by, or leave behind your home to struggle for a better life in a city.
The rise of the automobile significantly transformed both urban and rural areas by enhancing mobility and reshaping infrastructure. In cities, it led to the expansion of road networks, the decline of public transportation, and the growth of suburbs as people sought homes away from congested urban centers. Rural areas benefited from improved access to markets and services, but also faced challenges like diminished local economies due to increased reliance on larger urban centers. Overall, the automobile facilitated greater connectivity but also contributed to urban sprawl and environmental concerns.
These economies were essentially agro-pastoral in nature and the agricultural elements included cereals (wheat and barley), pulses, oilseeds, cotton and numerous other plant products. The pastoral elements were both sedentary and nomadic and were made up mainly of cattle (Bos indicus) and sheep & goat. The urban centres such as Harappa, Mohenjo Daro, Rakhigarhi, Kalibangan, Ganveriwala and Dholavirawere centres of craft specialisations such as copper mettalurgy, bead manufacture, faience manufacture, (most probably) cloth making, and the creation of various speciality and prestige goods whose manufactue was not viable at smaller rual centres. There was aso a considerable amount of internal and external trade in the Harappan zone as well as with their neighbours in the Persian Gulf and in Mesopotamia. There was no specific currency and the medium of exchange was AA highly sophisticated barter system. Dr. Kurush F. Dalal Archaeologist.
